BIOENG 282
Model-Based Design of Clinical Therapies
Students will learn how to translate a clinically relevant physical system into a governing equation with boundary conditions, and how to use this mathematical model to test and improve the design of medical devices and therapies. Problems of mass, heat, and momentum transport; the interaction of electromagnetic fields with materials (including tissue); and the mechanics of fluids and solids will be explored.
Topics
- • Develop skills in translating physical problem statement into quantitative applied math construction • Emphasis will be on constructing problems statements into mathematical equations and boundary conditions.
- • Use quantitative applied math construction to estimate dominant parameters or dimensionless groups in cutting-edge, industry-relevant problem statements • Students become well-versed in quantitative analysis of real life products and therapeutic applications
